on the bright side of the street
Lay my fertilizer with passion
cause this green serene scene
Follows me wherever steps are made
See, it's plain and simple
when it comes to keeping clean
lack the lust to miss my friend
My friends, my comfort zone,
Greener grass is all the grains
From Mother Earth to Mars and back
if you try to take my art and smash
Leaving tracks on my green grass
That turn brown in the summertime
That should be my main embellishment
To keep a fetish on my letters
That's a precedent for precincts
On the residential blocks of all intelligence
And we think we got it good right here
but we got it good right here
Till there's nothing left for proving
except breaking all my fears
As long as I got what I'm using,
God will keep me in the clear
the greener grass is always near here
Love what you got or you lose
There's no more greener grass
Just stay steady on your path
Hey! No more greener grass
Love what you got or you lose
There's so much more to grab
Just stay steady on your path
I feel like I'm at high school again,
trapped in the nurse table
Watching the jocks gloss at the cool table
got signed to cool labels
I'm jockin' an d I got signed
That Pigeon John is the bump
Is that why I'm looking for
Another brick in the wall, suppose
That I chose a profession
Slangin' like a traveler salesman
I'm sellin' packed rooms and my CD
That's when I see these niggas
Makin' it quite hard not to envy
Every time I flip through Urb magazine
I see all my friends blowin'
They don't deserve it more than I do
And that's the kind of takin'
that we're leavin' to kill
or you lose what you have
Just stay steady on your path
or you lose what you have
Just stay, stay, stay on the band
Well, I'm not tryna chase a mirage
I play like, hey, we got it made,
Don't need my ego massaged
Just my feet and my back,
can't make your life simple
I'm stranded in the thick of the fields,
Ten toes plus fingers, you're straight
Keep your stinkin' ass off my grass,
I might say it, you catch me?
My whole world's a crop circle,
cause then he needs his sheep
And she needs what I got,
I'll pot it and push it, mine
well you decide for yourselves
or you lose what you have
Just stay steady on your path, hey
or you lose what you have
Just stay steady on your path, hey
That's what I'm talking about
Hey, Rich and John Grouch
Greenery, greenery, greenery, grove
Greenery, greenery, grove
some we get a sound so sweet.
Vibrations reach on up to become light,
and then through gamma out of sight.
Between the eyes and ears
